Working dog and his charges, Agrodome

There were 25 million sheep in New Zealand and 5 million inhabitants as of 2023. My photo caption from 1985 says, "70 million sheep and 3 million people."

This was taken during a live sheep show at the Agrodome.

I see Border Collies in the photo but that looks like a Rotti in there with the sheep. V

J’ai assisté à la même présentation et cela évoque pour moi de bons souvenirs. V

A very interesting display. It’s strange to see a stuffed dog. V
